Paliwanag

Krishna answers in one of the most famous lines of the Gita: I am time (kāla), grown vast, the destroyer of worlds, engaged here in withdrawing all peoples. Time is the force that brings everything to an end, and it is already at work on the battlefield. Then comes the point aimed directly at Arjuna: even without his action, the warriors facing him will not live. His refusal to fight would not save them. The verse reframes his dilemma. The outcome he dreads is not in his hands; what remains in his hands is how he acts within it.
